2 PAEA 2018 ANNUAL FALL CONFERENCE Conference Information & Committee Members
Hands–On Conference Events . . . Tara Kiley-Rothwell, a local SAORI (SA: Zen ORI) weaver, will join our 2018 conference to produce a collaborative SAORI Weaving with attendees. Please consider bringing personal treasures to include in the weaving; fabric scraps, textural yarns, beads or natural materials to name just a few possible materials. The philosophy behind the weaving process is to allow the artwork to develop and to celebrate its irregularities and natural progression. Participate in a collaborative artist book featuring embarrassing moments of professionals around the globe. Leslie Gates’ book–in–process, BLUSH, is an opportunity for you to anonymously hand–stamp a moment of professional embarrassment. The act of hand stamping the moment visually separates the work from the aesthetic of a personal journal (in which handwriting might appear). Hand stamping also requires a greater length of time and therefore forces one to meditate on the mistake longer than it feels comfortable. The moment cannot be discarded with a quick impulse. The BLUSH Project is an attempt to celebrate and embrace our less–desirable moments as a tribute to life–in–process.

EYES WIDE OPEN 5 About the Artist Tara Kiley-Rothwell, SAORI Weaver
Tara Kiley–Rothwell is a certified SAORI instructor, since 2016, and the owner of Kite Tales Weaving SAORI Arts Studio in Mechanicsburg, PA. She is an enthusiastic SAORI guide, skilled at encouraging her students to experience the joy of free– flowing creativity through weaving. Tara began studying SAORI weaving in 2013, shortly after completing studies in traditional weaving. She studied with teachers in the US and Japan and now owns one of only 19 SAORI studios in the US. Growing up, Tara had little interest in art until friends taught her to needlepoint and cross–stitch while in high school. In college she majored in International Relations and Scandinavian Studies and also learned to knit, increasing her fascination with color and textures. After college, she remained interested in fibers as a hobby while working in banking, the travel industry and raising a family. On a trip to Ireland in 2005, her family went on a tour of Avoca Handweavers where they practically dragged her away. After that, the loom increasingly began calling to her. Then her family relocated to Central PA and she ended up an hour away from the finest weaving school in the country—The Mannings, where she found many excuses to avoid taking classes for several years. With the encouragement of her family and a gift from supportive friends, she finally went to weaving school, picked up her loom two days later, and hasn’t stopped weaving since. Tara started in a small beginner weaving class, where her teacher, Tom Knisely of Red Stone Glen Weaving Studio, taught her traditional weaving and also introduced her to many forms and philosophies of weaving. She became interested in SAORI, a non- traditional style of weaving created by Misao Jo of Japan. Misao took up weaving late in life and was weaving an Obi, a kind of kimono belt, when she realized she had missed a warp thread and created a flawed but interesting product. Misao then purposefully began skipping blades when warping her loom, finding that the absence of warp threads in irregular intervals and varied thickness was actually very captivating. She discovered an aesthetic quality that was derived from something hidden inside herself and that was only possible when she broke away from conventional thinking about weaving. She built a special two–harness loom, engineered by her son, and began teaching friends this new kind of weaving of expressive flawed cloth that she called SAORI. Tara Kiley–Rothwell’s journey to become an artist was unconventional, much like SAORI weaving. She now works as a guest teacher at Red Stone Glen Fiber Arts Center and conducts workshops for art educators and artist–in–residence programs in schools. An avid spinner and dyer, she is also co–president of the Central Pennsylvania Guild of Hand– Weavers, a member of the Lancaster Spinners and Weavers Guild, and recently became a member of the PA Farm Show Sheep to Shawl Team.

6 PAEA 2018 ANNUAL FALL CONFERENCE About the Blush Project Leslie Gates, Ph. D.
Leslie Gates is an artist–educator that works predominantly in the form of artist books. Her current book project explores professional educators embarrassing moments. The intent of this collaborative work is two–fold. First, to invite participants to recall moments of vulnerability or embarrassment related to their profession. Second, to permanently document and then put on display undesired behaviors as a tribute and celebration to life–in–process. Following the conference, Leslie will scan the images in high resolution and publish BLUSH as a digital book as well as create a physical book called BLUSH: Hand–Stamped Tales. Follow #BlushBook2018 on Instagram to view the development of the book or use the hashtag to chronicle your participation!

10 PAEA 2018 ANNUAL FALL CONFERENCE Carla Majczan K–8 Art Educator Souderton Charter School Collaborative
